Empowering the Community

Activities include bulb/wild flower  planting, woodland management, wildlife monitoring, vegetation cutting & fundraising. This type of volunteering gives people the opportunity to learn new skills, meet new friends, laugh and  keep fit.

Through partnerships with Park Rangers they work tirelessly to increase biodiversity, create wildlife habitats, and promote the educational use of the nature areas .
